This is one of those nitpicky questions I always have with time travel, but nobody else seems to... Also with Jurassic Park but I guess genetic engineering is the solution there.

If I recall correctly dinosaurs in jurassic park (the novel) had also problem in breathing, just like when you go in high altitude places, but they eventually get used to it with time.
And Terranova tackled the issue similarly, as the humans in the 80 MYA world, first use a breathing device, and then, after some time, they can breath normally as their body adapts to the different atmosphere
