Robin Hanbury-Tenison (born 7 May 1936) is a Cornish explorer. He is president of the charity Survival International. ==Life== In 1959, Hanbury-Tenison married Marika Hopkinson, and lived with her in a fourteenth-century farmhouse on Bodmin Moor; Marika became well known for her cookery books, published under her married name.〔Hanbury Tenison, M. ''Deep-Freeze Cookery''. 2nd edition. London. Pan Books, 1972, p. i.〕 They had two children, Lucy (b. 1960) and Rupert (b. 1970).〔(Robin Hanbury-Tenison Curriculum Vitae )〕 Marika died in 1982. In 1968 he travelled on a BBC-funded expedition in the Amazon, having a discussion with the ethnobotanist Conrad Gorinsky that led to the foundation of the charity Survival International; he became its first president. In 1971, he and Marika went on a three-month expedition, backed by Survival International, to visit and live among the Xingu people in Brazil, speaking with local people and studying their living conditions. In 1973, the Hanbury-Tenisons followed up their journey to Brazil with a three-month visit to Indonesia. They made their last research trip together in 1979, when they visited Malaysia as part of a Royal Geographical Society scientific expedition.〔(Patricia D.
