Its always interesting watching people humanize animals. Animals are not people... no matter how much people want to see humanity in them.
The most likely explanation is that in the lions very primitive brain, the simple hardwired program to nurture and protect a young lion kicked into gear and having a primitive brain which does little more than follow the strongest urge at the moment without the benefit of conscious thinking to interrupt behaviors, it didn't correctly distinguish the calf from any other young and acted in accordance to that urge.
More amusing is that once the lion was hungry, it likely ate the calf or another one did right in front of the "compassionate mother" as she watched and then picked at the carcass... of course, that video never gets posted... because after all, now its just a lion being a lion.
