An orgle is a sound made by male llamas:

An orgle sounds similar to someone gargling. It is just a little more forceful and has a bit of a buzzing tone throughout. The male will make this sound while approaching a female for breeding and will continue until copulation is complete. This can last anywhere from 20 minutes to 1 hour. The males do not show any signs of discomfort during or after orgling for so long.
