Two reasons:

1. There is a subtle meaning difference. "Since" is typically used for ongoing actions, implying that the bees were released 35 years ago and in the time "since" then the migration has occurred. I think this would require the non-underlined main verb to be "have migrated." On the other hand, "after" simply means that whenever the release happened, by 35 years later on the time-line, the migration had already occurred. This justifies the use of the past perfect "had migrated" in the main clause of the sentence.
2. "had been released": passive voice, which could be OK, but we don't really need it here. Generally, stick with active unless you need passive voice, or unless the other choices all have other errors.
