One way to do it is with barplot.  You would put your data in a
matrix m1 in which the columns were animals and the rows were
real/model.  (I might have it backward about rows/columns).  The
something like barplot(m1,beside=T) and lots of other options for
labels, colors, line thickness, line spacing, etc., although red
just might turn out to be the default.  Look at the help for
barplot.
