Sonic lanterns were small, yellow devices used by the Silurians. They produced irritating noises which could be used to corral dinosaurs in place.
When a Tyrannosaurus rex was accidentally brought to 1890s London, Madame Vastra gave the police force a sack of sonic lanterns to keep the dinosaur from wandering off. While the Twelfth Doctor was drifting in and out of post-regeneration confusion, he claimed the sonic lanterns were giving the dinosaur headaches. (TV: Deep Breath)
