Is there an adapter that would connect my WD Hard Drive with USB 3.0 to a Thunderbolt port?

I have several WD hard drives (WD 4TB Elements Portable External Hard Drive, USB 3.0 - WDBU6Y0040BBK-WESN) that interface with my laptop through USB 3.0. I would prefer not to have to buy new external hard drives as the ones I have are only a few months old.
