The Praying Mantis is at the agricultural engineering building, not the arboretum. Super cool, worth your time.

Annabelle the Praying Mantis is in the Phenology Research Garden of Ohio State University, within the Chadwick Arboretum. The giant sculpture is nestled into mature plantings and seasonal gardens and isn't easily seen from the road. However, its bright green color makes it pop out of the other greenery as you walk up to this Praying Mantis with a smile.
