The only sure way you can tell if a cow has aborted is when you find the remains of an underdeveloped dead fetal calf on the ground. Often that calf will be a bit smaller than the ones that are born live and to full term.
However, if the coyotes or dogs got to the aborted fetus before you did, you may suspect abortion if the cow:
a) doesn't have any signs of having a calf at side (teats don't look moist or different quarters emptier than others);
b) appears to not have given birth in the same period as the others have, if at all;
c) comes into heat cycling a bit earlier than the others who didn't abort but had a normal calving, or;
d) has been preg-checked earlier confirming she's bred, but never calves out at the suspected due date.

In almost all cases, no.

How do you get a beef cow to accept a calf that isn't hers?
The best thing you can do is to skin the dead calf of that beef cow's, and drape it over the orphan calf's body so that you trick the cow into thinking that that calf is hers. But this will only work if you have that cow's dead calf on hand and not if that cow doesn't have a calf or if you're wanting to put another calf on that cow. Other tricks include smearing cod liver oil or perfume or some other strong-smelling solution that's not poisonous to the cow nor calf over the cow's nose and all over the back and head of the calf, putting a dog in with the cow and the calf, etc.
