Do Dorfs die of old age? If so... what sort of age range?

Was reading some Legends and they die of old age, but I don't know if that's just the adventure mode or what...

Dwarves will die of old age between the ages of 150 and 170, if I recall correctly.

These include dwarves in your fortress, if you want to play a fortress for that long. Most people don't.

And if you can keep them alive for so long without just walling in and doing nothing forever, then good for you.
