The strange things are :
1) Its orbit is inclined at a large angle to the plane that the major planets orbit in. There are several other small planetoids (plutoids) with similarly inclined orbits.
2) There is a very large difference between its least and greatest distance from the Sun. This is referred to as a highly eccentric or highly elliptic orbit.
Yes. Because of its orbit Neptune and Pluto switch places every 20 years.
Answer: No, Pluto is not an orbit. Pluto is in an orbit: a 2:3 resonance orbit with Neptune.No, Pluto is a dwarf planet.
Pluto's unusual orbit causes it to travel inside Neptune's orbit.
The planet with an orbit that intersects the orbit of the dwarf planet Pluto is Neptune. Neptune, the eighth and farthest known planet from the Sun in the Solar System, has an orbit that crosses Pluto's orbit due to its elliptical path around the Sun. This orbital relationship between Neptune and Pluto is one of the factors that led to Pluto's reclassification as a dwarf planet in 2006 by the International Astronomical Union.
Pluto's orbital period is about 248.09 earth years, or 90,613,305 days.

Pluto's orbit passes inside the orbit of Neptune.
No answer Pluto orbits the Sun Pluto does not orbit the Earth
Pluto's orbit sometimes carries inside the orbit of Neptune. One time, Pluto was stuck in Neptune's orbit for around 20 years.
Pluto's orbit DOES NOT overlap the orbit of the asteroid Ceres. But it does overlap the orbit of the planet neptune
Pluto's unusual orbit causes it to travel inside Neptune's orbit.
I'm not sure if any of these is "the strange fact", but they're all true:Pluto's orbit is so eccentric that it can be either nearer to or further away from the Sun than Neptune is (it spends the majority of its time further away, though, and only cuts inside Neptune's orbit for about 20 years of its approximately 250-year-long orbit).Pluto's orbit is "locked" to Neptune's in a 3:2 resonance (i.e. Pluto completes exactly 2 orbits for every 3 of Neptune's).Neptune's largest moon, Triton, is somewhat larger than Pluto, and may at one time have been a KBO like Pluto itself.
Pluto has such an unusual orbit, because it goes in a flat oval.
The planet with an orbit that intersects the orbit of the dwarf planet Pluto is Neptune. Neptune, the eighth and farthest known planet from the Sun in the Solar System, has an orbit that crosses Pluto's orbit due to its elliptical path around the Sun. This orbital relationship between Neptune and Pluto is one of the factors that led to Pluto's reclassification as a dwarf planet in 2006 by the International Astronomical Union.
the longest orbit is pluto
No. Pluto orbits the sun.
