snap one object to another?

Hey guys, I’m making a Dragon Creature for Skyrim and I would like to know something.

Can I snap one object to another?

I have a pair of forelegs currently modeled and want to connect them properly, I was hoping I could do this by highlighting a group of edges and going from there, can I do this?

The magnet icon on the 3dview header exposes numerous snapping options to the right of it. This will still leave the mesh disconnected to the rest of the object which you can join how you wish.
