It was Mel BLANC (as usual with Warner for the most part at that time) who did the voice of the Coyote when he spoke. I'm sure Mel Brooks thinks of himself as refined and distinguished, but his performance style generally isn't (and in the 1950s he was a largely unknown comedy writer).
Unfortunately, 'Coyote Vs. Acme', as the movie was to be called, has had its release vetoed by the current incarnation of the studio's parent company, Warner Brothers-Discovery (the current boss has done that to other productions as well, so it's not an animation slight.) Hopefully if a new administration comes in for the studio they will reconsider a release.
Thank you so much. That’s really kind of you.

Me too. They really did silent animation so well, Coyote’s eyes always got me. 🤩 Thanks for taking the time to read and comment.
Especially like the fun facts at the end. And the article is fantastic! Thanks.
I really hope we get to see the Coyote Vs Acme film one day. It's such a brilliant concept
