Nina Dobrev Faces Her Fears & Swims With Sharks!

Nina Dobrev is facing her fears to help save the sharks!

The 28-year-old actress and ocean conservation organization Oceana joined forces to raise awareness about the global shark fin trade and Nina got to swim with sharks in the process!

“I am thrilled to join up with Oceana and help fight for healthy oceans. I’ve been fascinated by sharks for a while. They used to scare me, but once I realized what amazing creatures they are, I knew I needed to lend my voice to Oceana’s campaign,” Nina said in a statement.

She added, “I was really struck by how graceful sharks are � and how uninterested they were in me. These are unique, fascinating animals and they deserve our respect. The U.S. has a great opportunity to set a positive example and help discourage the demand for shark fins around the world.”
