Snoop Dogg to Narrate ‘Planet Earth’

LOS ANGELES — Snoop Dogg heard the call of the wild, and he responded.

The rapper is providing commentary for nature and other videos on “Planet Snoop,” a new series on his Merry Jane website.

The world learned of Snoop Dogg’s skill as nature host when his parodies of the “Plant Earth” documentary series aired on ABC’s “Jimmy Kimmel Live.”

A petition titled “Get Snoop Dogg to Narrate Whole Season of Planet Earth” drew more than 75,000 signatures, according to the website, and “Planet Snoop” was born.

One clip offers Snoop Dogg’s remarks on the battle between a squirrel and a snake.
